It involves systematically managing, optimizing, and refining processes to ensure that they operate at their highest potential, delivering high-quality outcomes while minimizing waste and inefficiencies.
Six Sigma, Lean and Kaizen are examples of process excellence frameworks that can help foster a culture of continuous improvement, helping to align processes with organizational goals.
